Snacking for your health seems counter-intuitive, right? It definitely can be, but when done correctly, in a healthy way, snacking can actually be beneficial.
One of our not-so-well-kept secrets is that we carry snacks here at Supplize! From breakfast bars and applesauce to bite-sized pretzels, we've got what you need for that midday boost of energy. Not only that, we've also put together a short list of the benefits of snacking. (You know, in case you aren't convinced yet.)

1. Sustained energy levels
When your blood sugar levels get too low, you can start to feel tired. Healthy, high-protein snacks not only prevent a crash between meals, they help you avoid a sugar crash later on.
2. Increased nutrient intake
We've all heard of the food pyramid. Unfortunately, most of us don't eat the recommended servings of fruit, grains, and everything else. Enter healthy snacks to up your intake.
3. Faster metabolism
Snacking throughout the day helps keep your metabolism burning at a consistent level. Skipping meals, on the other hand, slows down your metabolism and causes weight gain.

4. More appetite control
We've all been there -- so hungry that we stuff ourselves with whatever food is available, healthy or not. Small snacks help stave off that hunger and allow you to make smarter choices about the food you eat.
5. Better concentration
Providing your body with fuel consistently increases focus and performance. Eating small snacks between meals helps you concentrate on the tasks at hand and work more efficiently.
